Internet providers....pfffffft

How many of you have your computer less than 2 meters away from the telephone connection-socket thing in the wall?

WHY do internet providers supply you with 1m80 of cable? It's not real. It's not real and it's bloody well unfair!!!

And whilst we're on the subject of being screwed as a consumer...why on earth does 15 meters of that same cable cost 31 euros??
31 bloody euros! That's 4 bottles of dry white wine!!!

I may as well pull down my pants, bend over and paint: "Stick it to me society" on my arse!

Anyways, I was well pissed off, so when the guy who ripped my spleen out with 3 fishing hooks...or sold me the cable, whatever....said: "I hope you get your internet connection to work." I just had to reply: "So do I, if I don't then I'm gonna burn down the town hall."

Do you know what this snivelling failed miscarriage....or salesman, whatever....offered me in the verbal sense of things?
"And what would that achieve?"

Can you believe it? WHAT WOULD THAT ACHIEVE???? The way I was sweating, snarling and staring one would think precaution was in order. But no. This Lingering fart in a bloody space suit....or assertive person, whatever....had to challenge me one more time. He had to snap the back of my last resolve. He had to...well, you get the jist....

So I turned back to face him, and believe me, if I'd been armed, I would have shot the twat, but I wasn't, so I didn't, but I stared straight at him like John Wayne at a wounded Injun and said: "Just for the fun of it." And I walked outta that Hell hole of fraud and debauchery....or shop, whatever...feeling like Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry.

1m80 of cable? HAVE THEY LOST THEIR MINDS!!?????????
